Cannondale keeps surprising me in a positive way about their new signings. I wonder if they've managed to unlock some additional money for 2016.
Martin, Hasjedal and Danielson moving on would release some funds and some riders come with personal sponsorship that pays some of the riders wage, not sure if this is the case with any of the signings just a thought.
I really thought Cannondale were on the road to nowhere earlier in the transfer season but they have made some interesting signings with Clarke being a very good one

Don't understand why Moscon want to go into the WT so early, a team like Bardiani would perfectly for him at this point in his career :/ I don't think he will do much next season, so hope he don't waste his talent  He's pretty good on cobble's so Bardiani wouldn't make a chance, they only ride the driedaagse de panne and la fleche brabanconne
Are you basing that on Ronde U23? That has more hills than cobbles, and its the most pointless race to see if a rider has any potential to be a cobbler at pros.
Obviously Moscon got some guarantees and a heft pay check.

I think Team Sky did a good job on getting Landa as their new Richie Porte. |

I do believe that landa can you win a vuelta a España next year, but we will see because of the tt, on the giro is almost impossible because of the 70km of tt next year. If landa gets back to his level of form at giro this year and improve his time trial with sky i think he can win every gt but we will see. Aswell as kwiatowski its confirmed but for what does sky want golas |

Reading interviews from Landa and hearing reports and comments from a member CN, Landa likes the Giro a lot more, due to weather conditions, the wind etc. He likes spring better as well.
On the Giro, those 70 ITT are kinda deceiving since we have one prologue at around 10, another semi hilly/flat ITT at 40 and the rest a MTT (thats the most probable). I dont think he will lose more than 4 to Nibali, closer to 3 than 4 I believe. And the mountain passes that Giro is planning to implement.. He stands very good chances imo. |

You know, Gołaś to Sky is probably because of Kwiatek. He wants Gołaś with him and he gets him  .
Something like: "Okey, I will join Sky in 2016, but I want Gołaś with me". |

Damn, hoped for Movistar. Sky will still own them in the mountains in the Tour and dictate things |

Doesn't really matter. They needed to get better for the flat. Oliveira is a great aquisition and I hope after the Vuelta they realised what a big fail it was not taking Rojas to France.

Thats plain wrong, Movistar has some of the, if not the best, rouleurs/flat men in the whole peloton. Malori, Castroviejo, Rojas, Dowsett, Sutherland and Erviti. You can throw Ventoso in as well, and now with Oliveira. They were covered on that front even before Oliveira joined (which still doesnt make it a bad deal at all imo), but they lack high powered climbing domestiques since neither of the Herrada bros, Izaguirre bros and Amador are that. Anacona can maybe evolve into that, while Anton and Gadret have faded drastically.. |

What do you mean by that?
Landa can go free in the Giro or Vuelta and be Froome's main helper in the TdF? |

Well Unzue said he only wanted 25 next year and with Oliviera confirmed and Betancur all but confirmed that made 25, the only rider I can see them renewing to make it 26 is Sanz and only because he's Unzue's nephew because the guy isn't WT standard

Valls wouldn't of been the high powered climbing domestique you think they need anyway, he's would be a good climbing Dom but he basically matches up with the ones they already have. I think Movistar are already strong enough in the Mountains for the Tour as the climbers they have fit better with Quintnana's style than a full on diesel train like Sky's, they just need to change up some poor tactical decisions
